This MIB provides information for WLAN configuration extended.
The HPN-ICF-DOT11-CFG-MIB define MIB objects for WLAN basic configuration,
while this MIB will define MIB objects for load balance these kinds

GLOSSARY

IEEE 802.11
Standard to encourage interoperability among
wireless networking equipment.

Access point (AP)
Transmitter/receiver (transceiver) device
that commonly connects and transports data
between a wireless network and a wired network.

Access control (AC)
To control and manage multi-APs, it will bridge
wireless and wired network.

Fat AP
Applied in the home, SOHO and so on, and it could
work independently without help from AC.

Fit AP
Applied in the enterprise environment, it will work
under the control and management from AC.

Control And Provisioning of Wireless Access Points Protocol
The short name of protocol is CAPWAP. AC will control
and manage AP by CAPWAP tunnel protocol defined by IETF.
Also, a data tunnel will be set up between AC and AP.

BSS
IEEE 802.11 Basic Service Set (Radio Cell).  The
BSS of an AP comprises of the stations directly
associating with the AP.

Radio
The chip set to receive and send wireless signal.

Association
The service used to establish access point
or station mapping and enable station invocation
of the distribution system services.
(Wireless clients attempt to connect to
access points.)

Basic Rate
A data rate that is mandatory for client
devices to support in order for them to achieve
successful association.

MSDU
MAC Service Data Unit, it is frame format defined by
802.11.

TU
It is 1,024 microseconds (ms), which is about 1
millisecond.

AKM
The authentication and key management method defined by
802.11i, and which includes 802.1x and pre-shared key.
